Safe Sleep Program

DC residents can get Pack 'n Plays for their infant to ensure infants are sleeping safely. Putting a baby to sleep face up in a crib reduces the chance of death caused by Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), suffocation and roll over deaths related to the infant sharing a bed with parents or other children.

The Safe Sleep Program provided through DOH provides:

Safety Approved Pack ‘n Play

Parent/Caregiver Education

Education for Community Partners

Referrals

Parents and/or caregivers must participate in a safe sleep educational session in order to receive their Pack ‘n Play.
